Genetic and ecological studies of animals in Chernobyl and Fukushima.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Mousseau Timothy A, Møller Anders P

Abstract excerpt

Recent advances in genetic and ecological studies of wild animal populations in Chernobyl and Fukushima have demonstrated significant genetic, physiological, developmental, and fitness effects stemming from exposure to radioactive contaminants. The few genetic studies that have been conducted in Chernobyl generally show elevated rates of genetic damage and mutation rates. All major taxonomic groups investigated...
